Cummins ISB6.7 CM2350 (2013-17) Fault Code: 1867 PID: 412 SPN: 412 FMI: 2 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Temperature- Data Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect

Cummins ISB6.7 CM2350 (2013-17) Fault Code: 1867 PID: 412 SPN: 412 FMI: 2 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Temperature- Data Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect

Circuit Description
The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) temperature sensor is a variable resistor sensor and is used to measure the temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. The ECM monitors the change in voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor to determine the EGR flow temperature.

The EGR temperature value is used by the ECM for the engine protection system and engine emissions control.

Component Location
The EGR temperature sensor is located on the EGR connection tube between the EGR cooler and the air intake connection.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic consists of two parts. The first part runs when the keyswitch is turned to the ON position after a 8 hour cold soak, during which the keyswitch has been turned OFF. The second part runs continuously while the engine is running and EGR flow is above a calibratible value.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the EGR temperature reading was too high or tool low for the operating conditions, or the EGR temperature reading was not changing with the operating conditions.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
1)The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
2)Diesel exhaust fluid injection into the aftertreatment system is disabled.
3)Active and stationary regeneration of the diesel particulate filter will be disabled.
4)Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve operation will be disabled.
5)Engine torque will be reduced if the engine is operated for an extended period of time with this fault active.

Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
1)To validate the repair using a Diagnostic Road Test, utilize a route that incorporates both stop and go city type driving and steady state highway type driving. It may be necessary to load the unit for certain diagnostics in the ECM to run.
2)To validate the repair using a Chassis Dynamometer, utilize a routine that incorporates acceleration and motoring events, steady state highway type operation, and load. This will simulate normal driving and allow the diagnostics in the ECM to run.
3)If the fault code does not go inactive, it may be necessary to perform a 8 hour cold soak with the key OFF, then turn the keyswitch to the ON position so that the key ON portion of the diagnostic will run.
4)The fault code status displayed by INSITE? electronic service tool will change to INACTIVE immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
5)The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
6)For On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) engines, the ECM will extinguish the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) after three consecutive trips where the diagnostic runs and passes.
7)The Reset All Faults command in INSITE? electronic service tool can be used to clear active and inactive faults, as well as extinguish the MIL for OBD applications.

Possible causes:
1) Stuck in-range EGR temperature sensor
2) High resistance in the EGR temperature sensor signal or return wires.

If there is a Low Coolant fault active or very recently inactive, please ensure low coolant is adequately resolved and all air is out of the system before troubleshooting
